Respuesta :

The amount of Type A coffee that was used is 40 pounds.

From the given information;

Type A coffee costs Miguel $5.95 per pound

Type B coffee costs $4.65 per pound.

For this month, the equation can be expressed as:

A + 3A

Thus;

5.95A + 3(4.65)A = 796.00

5.95A +13.95A = 796.00

19.9A = 796.00

A = 796.00/19.9

A = 40

Therefore, we can conclude that the amount of pounds of type A coffee that was used is 40 pounds.
